Having done this back with the first printing, the hardback is cheaper. Depends where you go, but in my area Staples typically has the best prices.

If you do try it, be prepared to have to ask Pat or Alex for written permission to give to the printer.

If someone purchases a PDF, do they have the right to have it printed out?

I would say so Some vendors don't allow printing of copyrighted material, but you paid for it so in our eyes it'd be fine.

Thanks again. I may have to see what it costs to get bound or print it and bind it myself.

My local Staples printed and bound it for 5 bucks less than the hardback's cover price. Take that as you will.

Also take note: the book's freaking huge, and the binding options at staples are a little limited (at least, the affordable ones are). I had mine spiral-bound, and I think the rings are over an inch and a half across. It's a moose of a book. So I'd encourage you to have it printed and bound by chapter rather than as a single massive tome. It's easier for multiple people to reference that way, too.

i plan on getting an e reader soon, i think that is the best option overall. especially with the kindle being just under 150 dollars, and thne you can carry several books at once without all the weight.
